“I went to Lisa because she was a friend, but I would recommend people to her because she is excellent at her profession. I thought I received her attention to detail and kindness because of our friendship. However, after reading all of the other remarks by satisfied clients I know it was just Lisa being Lisa.”

“We have not worked with Benchmark Mortgage before. We have however, worked with Lisa Perta on our first mortgage. Our experience as first time home owners and applying for our first mortgage was very easy. From the time we applied for our mortgage until the day we closed on our home was less than 3 weeks! We came to Benchmark because of Lisa’s expertise and our personal experience with her in the past. Lisa made our refinancing easy. The timing was quick, especially with the Christmas Holiday season. If we need to refinance, or apply for another mortgage for a new home, we will follow Lisa wherever she may be at the time.

We would rate your communication, timeliness and personal interaction with your staff as excellent! Our dealings with Lisa, Kerry Markus and other office personnel were wonderful. Everyone was courteous, kind and very informative. Kerry personally called us after hours to answer questions. Lisa personally drove to our house to make sure paperwork was submitted by the deadline when we had an online error in electronic signing. Lisa also, worked with my husband’s schedule for the closing date and time (8 a.m.!).

Our expectations and timeframes for our transaction were met. Especially with the Christmas Holiday season during our application process.

When thinking back on our experience using Benchmark, what stands out most in my mind is the kindness shown to us from the very beginning. The first day of contacting Lisa and meeting her at the Shavertown Office, both she and the staff went above and beyond. After dropping off the initial paperwork to begin the process, my car broke down in the office parking lot. Lisa stayed late with me until it could be towed. Office staff offered me coffee and something to eat while I waited. and as I left, Lisa gave me a poinsettia for the Christmas Holiday. And that was even before we had officially chosen Benchmark as our mortgage company. Little things like that, showing we were more than just a customer; we were treated like family, makes your company stand out.

We would absolutely recommend our family and friends to Benchmark Mortgage.

Thank you for everything. Your company has made the mortgage process easy and not as scary as it seems to be.”
